The continuous dyeing of fabrics by padding and then passage through steamers of large capacity for 2–10 min is described. The thermodynamics of the process are considered, and dyeing plants (Küsters and Gerber) in current use are discussed. Recommendations are given for the conditions for dyeing nylon–cotton plush, acrylic‐cotton plush, lining materials, etc. The extended‐time steaming process has found a permanent place among the various continuous dyeing processes.
